A 26-year-old Canton woman was arrested early Sunday morning after crashing her car into the Ulta Beauty store on Woodward Avenue near 11 Mile Road in Royal Oak, police said.
Royal Oak Police Lt. Rich Millard told The Oakland Press on Monday morning that the Oakland County Prosecutor’s Office is reviewing the case and the driver has not yet been charged.

The incident occurred at around 12:45 a.m. on Nov. 9. The driver surrendered to police after her car became stuck in the store and was taken into custody without further incident, Millard said.
This is the third reported incident in recent days of vehicles crashing into buildings in Oakland County. Last Thursday, six people were hurt when a 77-year-old Bloomfield Hills woman drove into the Thai Taste To Go restaurant on Telegraph Road near Long Lake Road in Bloomfield Township. And on Oct. 27 in Troy, a 45-year-old woman reportedly crashed a Chevy Equinox into the side of a residence on Woodside Trail. In that incident, police said witnesses reported that prior to the crash the woman hit a trailer while making a left turn, and then her vehicle rolled down the hill into the building. After she refused to submit to a breath test, officers were granted a search warrant to have medical personnel draw her blood and the case was subsequently turned over to the detective bureau, police said.
